Wanda,

There is a way to do this in RPGIV.  From the code below I would assume that
you are not using RPGIV.  If you have access to RPGIV you can do the
following:

On your F Spec use the keyword PREFIX(???)
The prefix keyword will place what every you define as your prefix in front
of all the fields from that file

FFILE UF   E           K DISK    PREFIX(PRO) RENAME(BAREC:PROBAREC) 

D INPUT            E  DS                  EXTNAME("File Name")      
                                                                        
D OUTPUT        E  DS                  EXTNAME(FILE) PREFIX(PRO) 


Then all you have to do is move the "INPUT"  to the "OUTPUT"
